Farmers at Timonium.-The meeting of
Baltimore county farmers which was held under
the auspices of the County Grange at the limo
mum Fair Grounds on Wednesday, was not so
large expected, owing principally to the
threatening aspect of the weather. There was,
however, fair turn out of representative farmers,
many of whom were accompanied by the ladies of
their families. Mr.. G. Lyon Rogers was chairman
of the meeting and introduced the speakers, Mr..
D. II. Thing, of Maine, an officer of the National
Grange, and Mr.. II. o. Devries, of Howard coun-
ty, agent of the Maryland State Grange.
Mr.. Thing spoke especially of the oleomargarine
trade, which he said had imperiled the great dairy
interests of this country, with its $9O,0000 900 in
vested. He claimed the Oleomargarine bill had
forced them to make better article, although the
price was reduced from % cents to and II cents.
All they had to do was to bring the production of
oleomargarine below the cost of butter to ruin the
dairy trade, and this they could do even with
tax of two cents on it, for even then it could be
made at profit of one hundred per cent. Said
he: ave almost shed tears we read of Ireland's
wrongs and the doings of the landlords, who re-
ceive their rents from starving tenants, to live
rotously and luxuriously, and yet we forget that
there are twenty five per cent more tenant farmers
in our country than in Great Britain and Ireland.
If it goes on as it is going, in fifty years we will
be nation, all of landlords and tenants. One
man day may cultivate fifty acres of corn, and
yet there is no profit in it, Now is the time to
work to stop it."
Mr. Devries said: "There is no use for you to
say you can't help the state of affairs which exist,
by which you are raising corn and wheat at no
profit, for you can help it by organizing. The
farmers pay less regard to their business than
others do their industries. There is the trouble.
You must organize and exercise your power at the
ballot-box. Why did you not get the bill for state
elevators through the legislature? Because the
politicians said it was not polite. If you had
state elevators, as the tobacco men have state
warehouses, then you could store your grain and
have it assorted you could realize ten to fifteen
advance on it. The Grange has done
FORK. The whole thing narrows down to
ms: that you must organize and have oneness of
effort and oneness of purpose"
Mr.. Rogers also made some remarks, after which
the meeting adjourned.
number of the members of the Woman's Chris
tan Temperance Union attended the meeting and
organized branch Of the Union among the ladies
who were present.
